Does this last with frequent use in chlorine?

Sorry, I haven't had mine long enough to know. I've only used it a few times, so far. Dries quick.

Yes. I know someone who uses theirs 4 times a week for a couple years. Just at least rinse it real good after every swim in cold water an line dry.

we have used it all summer as a pool float... typical chlorine pool... no issues so far... at least none that we have noticed.

It depends on the size of the pool and what the chlorine measured when tested. I would not buy this chorine deapenser again. The only thing I still have is the cap that fit on my original dispenser after this one took on water and starting sinking. Cheap!

I don't use that non chlorine brand. I love what I have. I use the leisure time. Brand and its fantastic.

It lasts a while. Didn't notice having to change and we used it quite a bit.

No you don't have to run it all the time, but I would recommend buying a cover for it and running the pump/filter at least 6 to 8 hours for best results. Remember to chlorinate.

Yes I recommend that product. I have used this product many times in a chlorine pool and it is very durable and is still good as new. I hope that helps.

I'm not sure exactly how long 1 would last. I have the little floating things in the pool and fill them up and usually refill every week to 10 days. I use lots of chlorine as I don't use other chemicals. Hope this helps.

One month I use green pig to break down the solid waste, and the next month I use a chlorine tablet. Doing this for 8 years and no problems.

The documentation says it lasts six months. I live in Arizona and I put mine in right before swim season (end of May) and it lasts through the Summer. For year-round, I would replace it every six months. BTW, this does not cause you to skip your normal pool sanitizing. It only enhances it.

Hello Liz,Absolutely, We have used it for a full season without ANY issues. Once we charged the pool with the inital dose of salt and chemicals, we had NO problems all year. You can use the timer to cut down on your energy useage as claimed. The water remains Crystal Clear as promised. What a time saver and a quality improvement versus the cartidges, which are next to useless.

I personally use the 3" tablets, although I have used the pellets as well and it has worked great as long as it is ran at least once daily. If it sits unused too long the diluted chlorine will form a sort mud and can clog the little output pipes inside the unit. What I do is take all tables out and run it empty for about 30 minutes to purge it out before going on vacation.WARNING: When you open the lid keep your face away from the opening as you remove the lid....I learned it the hard way, my eyes burned for about 30 minutes and I had the taste of Chlorine in my mouth for about an hour, not to mention the initial discomfort of breathing the fumes !!!Good luck and enjoy....Another pool owner I personally use the 3" tablets, although I have used the pellets as well and it has worked great as long as it is ran at least once daily.

I have used my kit for two seasons, from late April until late October, at least twice a week and I still have enough chemicals to last at least another season or more. It has really helped me keep my pool in the best of shape. I have had no problems with algae etc. in using this kit a couple of times a week.

Have been using it in this twice a week a little diluted for a couple of months with no issues. Used it in the predecessor for > year which is still working.

We don't use chlorine. We leave it up for 2 days then empty it and wash it down with dish soap, rinse it out, then re-fill it.

Chlorine will degrade plastic over time causing it to fade and become brittle. However as long as you are fine with this then you can use these in a plastic pool. It's best to use a floating dispenser or a chorinator to dispense the chlorine into your pool water.

Do not know how long they last. I have never changed ours. It is so slow it is hardly used. I start filling a coffee pot and have to wait even after getting the coffee from the frig, put in a filter, put in coffee, put the coffee away, etc. Wish it did better because it does seem to take out the chlorine which was our big issue.DAK
